Hi,

As I remember some post mentioned latest version of SF has new property to specify default description field for sorting purpose at each BO. Is it implemented?



Thank you

Hi,

If I am not mistaken, Field Description will be used to display at Data Conflict dialog as well. If only one could be set, then would it missing its purpose?



Thank you

I didn't understand the second part of your question, but yes, the Description attribute is what gets used for concurrency conflict descriptions.

Hi,

Since the Description attribute is what gets used for concurrency conflict descriptions, therefore, I will set value to ALL field Description.



In this case, would default sort feature work? If yes, how does SF determine which field to use?

If not, do you think having additional property for this purpose is better?



Thank you

I think that there is some confusion here.  The description attribute on the strong-typed field property is for description purposes only.  It is shown in the type editors and concurrency exceptions.  But when selected as a search field in a Browse Dialog, you can change the text that will appear on the label right there.  This has absolutely nothing to do with a sort.  Just the label text.  The sort is applied to the values inside of the column that you define on the BrowseResultsLayout.

Hi,

Thank you for clarification.

Then, is there any property in BO to set for default sort field (not browsedialog)?

Well, you could set the Sort property of the BO...is that what you mean?
